Nerja is a popular choice for holiday makers and ex pats all over Europe. Having an agreeable climate throughout the year and one of the most diverse range of sights and leisure pursuits in southern Spain certainly does have its benefits, but what can Nerja really offer the would be buyer?

Situated on the western side of the Costa del Sol in the province of Andalusia, the town of Nerja is well placed for travel throughout Spain on the regions recently upgraded road network. Since its opening the E-15 toll road has reduced travelling time to Malaga airport considerably. In fact Malaga International Airport (AGP) is one of Spain's best served destinations with over 11,000,000 passengers travelling there every year. In today's market transport infrastructure is often one of the most important aspects in buying an overseas home; after all the cheaper and easier it is to get there the more you will use it/rent it out.

Nerja has successfully held out against the tower block and high rise hotel image. Instead great care has been taken to preserve its old quarter; a maze of narrow cobbled streets and arches, with white washed houses and traditional wrought iron balconies. Nerja is valued for this retention of old world charm, and consequently provides a slightly different offering to that of other towns along the Costa. Of course the building boom has reached here, and in recent times Nerja has attracted a lot of interest from residential tourists. This has led to continuing expansion of the town, and its population has risen. Most development has been low rise and in the form of villa style communities. It is mainly tasteful and in keeping with what came before.

Once just a summer holiday destination, the town now attracts people all year round. It has also developed its image, and is now widely considered to be an upmarket area in which to own a home/spend a holiday. This dual season activity, coupled with the fact that Nerja offers something for everyone, makes it a good spot for a rentals/investment purchase.
